    Spoilers 🧝Arwen at Helm's Deep

    "You don't have to put a sword in her hands to make her strong" I was watching the Behind the Scenes appendices part three for the Two Towers movies when I came across this part ( - Just watch the video clip). I almost cried with joy! For one, it would have been bad for this situation/story...
  2. Fanfic House Telcontar ~ A 4th Age Story

    Emyn Arnen - House of Lord Faramir and Lady Eowyn 20 Narquelië ~ 27 IV Arwen wandered alone in the gardens of Emyn Arnen as a light drizzle fell. The dripping from the trees accompanied the sound of the small creek that wound its way from the hills and through the estate. It had been a month...
  3. Spoilers The Standard 🧝Arwen Wrought in Secret.

    I marked this with a 'Spoiler' tag for anyone who has not read the Lord of the Rings books. One thing that always intrigued me in the 'Passing of the Grey Company' chapter was the standard that Arwen made and sent with her brothers south with the Grey Company. When I first read it, I wanted to...

    How come 🧝Arwen lived for 2000+ years?

    Arwen was a Half-Elf and she lived for 2000+ years without choosing between races as it seems. But other half-elves that came before her were considered mortal and didn't have an immortal life. Even Earendil was recognized as a "Mortal Man" by Manwe. It was after Elwing and he chose to count...
  6. What would have happened if Aragorn and Eowyn had wed?

    In Hammond and Scull's Reader Companion to the LOTR, H and S claim that Tolkien at some stage in the writing of the LOTR intended Aragorn and Eowyn to marry. If this had happened in the story, would Faramir and Arwen find true love elsewhere - in each other's arms maybe? Note that's not meant to...
  7. The Children of Aragorn and 🧝Arwen

    "But Arwen went forth from the House, and the light of her eyes was quenched, and it seemed to her people that she had become cold and grey as nightfall in winter that comes without a star. Then she said farewell to Eldarion, and to her daughters, and to all whom she had loved; and she went out...
  8. 🧝Arwen in LOTR Two Towers movie

    What happened to 🧝Arwen and Aragorn after they died?

    I know from the book, that Elves come after death into Mandos Halls, but what happened with humans like Aragorn after death, where will they come? When i read the book and watch the movie, i always thought about, "Is there a reuniting after death possible for Arwen and Aragorn. In the...
  10. My Tolkien-character looks like ....

    I've read the books before I watched the adaptions by Bakshi and Peter Jackson. These people here come close to my idea of how the characters would look like. Gandalf (the Nessie-researcher Adrian Shine)

    🧝Arwen & Aragorn

    The choice of Arwen to become mortal is one of the most tragic tales in LOR. It causes her enormous grief to part from Elrond and of course in the end from Aragorn. She becomes lifeless when Aragorn dies and goes from Gondor to Lorien which is deserted and lies down on a green hill and dies...

    🧝Arwen's spot on the boat

    At the end of LOTR, Arwen tells Frodo that she won't be going on the boat to Valinor, so Frodo can have her spot. I find this odd. Can she do this? I thought that was an inherent right of Elves, not a voucher that they can gift to whoever they want. Bilbo is on the boat too, who gave up their...

    Aragorn and 🧝Arwen

    When I first read these books, I had no idea Aragorn and Arwen were in love. I knew they had a relationship from meeting in Lorien, but until I saw the movies, I had no idea. I wasn't paying attention much, I guess. In Rivendell, Bilbo Baggins just told Aragorn that Arwen was at the feast, but...

    Is 🧝Arwen Doomed to grieve Aragorn forever?

    We all know that after the death of the elves, their souls are gathered in Mandos, their stay is temporary for some (they could be re-embodied) or eternal (as the world lasts) for the others. But concerning the spirits of Men, even the Valar don’t know to which realm they pass after the crossing...

    Why did 🧝Arwen have to die?

    Hi, if this has already been asked, than I apologize, I'm relatively new to tolkien's works. Ok so, here's my question: After Aragorn dies, Legolas builds a ship and sails to the grey havens with Gimli. Arwen seems to imply that the only reason why she can't sail to the west is because Celeborn...

    The passing of 🧝Arwen

    I was on another discussion board where I found myself engaged in a heavy (but healthy) debate. And this was between writers -- not necessarily Tolkien fans, though they respect him a lot. However, I want to get input from \"Real\" Tolkien fans, and I was referred her by a friend who used to...
  17. 🧝Arwen's Vision

    Here I am, indulging in feminine weakness, and saying I like a part of the movie PJ TOTALLY made up, fabricated, and possibly even detracted from character traits with. . .I adore Arwen's vision. I liked it from the first time I saw it, and everytime I see it I just melt. You know what I am...

    🦅Eagles & 🧝Arwen

    Why was it that Gandalf did not ask for the help of giant eagles since the beginning? And, did Arwyn become a mortal after her marriage to Aragorn?

    Elrond's & 🧝Arwen's Family/Last Name

    :confused: Now I hope this topic is appropreate for the Hall Of Fire...I hope.... I am wondering about Elrond & Arwen; what is their Family/Last Name? Is it Evenstar, or some other name? Thank you very much. ;) :)
  20. Beren & Luthien or Aragorn & 🧝Arwen... Whom do you admire more??

    I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes but I thought another deep topic might be of interest to our illustrious guild so I'm posting it without asking permission. Beren and Luthien... Aragorn and Arwen... There are great similarities as well as many blaring differences. Who do you find more...
